Sigur Ros is adding summer tour dates, playing festivals around Europe. US fans will have an opportunity to see him at Bonnaroo Music Festival on June 14, but soon after that they will be flying back to Europe.

Their fifth studio album was recorded in the month of February, at Sear Sound Studios in New York, a change for the band who has their own studio in Reykjavik, Iceland. Sigur Ros posted photos of their recording session on their Myspace and Flickr pages.

Heima, the band’s film, is continuing to screen around the world in select theaters, as interest continues to build. “The director of Heima, Dean Deblois, will be in attendance at several screenings of the movie in Vancity Theatre in Vancouver, Canada this weekend. The film will be screened in hd / dolby 5.1 sound.” Live footage from the Olafsvik concert on July 24, 2006, is available as a free download on sigurros.com, and Sigur Ros will be giving away additional footage that didn’t make Heima.
